4 Kettlebell Garage Gym Workouts
I began using Kettlebells back in 2003. Those were some GOOD times. I didn't own a warehouse gym at the time so my training was in my garage or my buddy and I would train at parks and playgrounds with a few Kettlebells, a sandbag and a sled. I sometimes, I just want to go back to those simple times. And so I go to my garage or a playground where nobody is there. Solitude is great. The other day I had that feeling coming back again. I went outside to shovel first and get the body working. I … [Read more...]
Best Muscle Building Tips with Short Workouts
I recently had a "moment", at least I did in my own mind...... I was feeling a bit run down a few weeks ago and 1 of my training sessions was simply nothing to write home to Mom about. And so I simply thought about these time crunched training (sorry, I hate using that word "workout") sessions I've been having with my athletes at the high school that are limited to 30 minutes. One of the athletes at the end was sweating and had gotten worked quite intensely. He said to myself and the crew, … [Read more...]
A Message to Garcia
Some months ago I was texting back and forth with my buddy Tosh (Brian Chontosh). I don't recall the nature of our conversation but he asked me, have you read a message to Garcia?

It's a read that will remind you to be gritty in life. A reminder to be someone that others can count in, even when the chips are down. It … [Read more...]
7 Strength Training / Coaching Mistakes that Hurt Athletes
I'm gonna kick this off with something that might sound like arrogance, but in truth, it's me taking pride in what we do and the results we've been delivering since day 1, 2002 garage days. I used to get hated on for how we trained but I look back and feel even those early days, even as imperfect as it all was, it was VERY EFFECTIVE. It was effective because we crushed the basics. We developed athletes, NOT just athletes who could lift heavy weights. These athletes were succeeding in every … [Read more...]
